Troll, trolling? Sorry don't know what that means

Battery contacts are perfect and it won't work with New batterys and I also use 3volt adapter plug which powers all my other units fine but won't power up this one.

Right start again.
You said the fuse is inside the power switch.
Iv already taken the power switch apart.
Its not blown.
So I cleaned the contacts within that power switch.

I had another game boy not working because inside the power switch it was dirty. I cleaned it out and it worked fine.

No I havnt even tried to install a front light on this gbc,
I was just trying to fix it as it wasn't working when I got it.

But where is that? And how can I check it?

Which resistor did you use for your front light?

Did you blow the power switch fuse?

Check it.

Hi all,
I've done a few front lit game boy colors now and they have all gone well.
I recently baught a gameboy color to do the mod again but It was faulty,
The fault was it wouldn't switch on...
Usually a good clean is all I have done in the past and it will all work fine.
But on this gameboy color iv tried so many things to try to get it to switch on and nothing has worked.
When I flick the switch the led power light flicks on for split second then goes off.
My question is, has anyone else had this problem and managed to fix it?
Is there a resistor or compositor that could be faulty that I can replace?
Any other tips or advice would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Danny
